The Lovely Sounds of Christmas
Michael Malthaner - Composer, Lyricist & Librettist

SYNOPSIS   |   SCRIPT (91kb PDF)

A mixture of beautiful new Christmas choral pieces, traditional holiday favorites and three lighthearted one-act musicals guaranteed to fill your audiences with the Yuletide spirit!

The piece is very flexible!  It allows many cast members an opportunity to be featured.  Your production can utilize all or parts of the show depending on time and cast considerations.

"It's no exaggeration to say that Michael Malthaner can legitimately be called the Stephen Sondheim of Erie County."  "...will sweeten the holiday season for all who catch this two hour holiday Yule-fest."  "See it, hear it, and take the kids."

- Floyd Lawrence, Erie Times SHOWCASE
